"没有罪也没有德只有人们做的事情"

Simplified Meaning:

People have different beliefs about what is right or wrong, but at the end of the day, actions are just things people do. Imagine a person who helps a neighbor carry groceries. One person might see this as a good, kind act. Another might not think it’s a big deal—just an everyday thing. On the flip side, if someone takes a candy bar from a store without paying, some might see it as very bad, while others might think it’s not so serious. The point is, actions themselves are just actions. It’s our thoughts and feelings about them that label them as right or wrong. In life, it can be helpful to remember this when we find ourselves judging others or even ourselves too harshly. Instead of focusing on labeling actions as good or bad, we can try to understand why people do what they do.
